Structure & Formations
Price formed multiple bearish patterns including a large 15-minute bearish engulfing at 16:00–16:15 ET, followed by a bearish continuation within a descending triangle from 6914602 to 6860846. The price found temporary support at 6860846, where it consolidated for several hours, but failed to reclaim the 6900 level. A small bullish reversal pattern formed near 6860846, hinting at short-term stabilization.
Moving Averages
On the 15-minute chart, the 20-period and 50-period EMA were both bearish, with price below both. The 20 EMA crossed below the 50 EMA, forming a bearish “death cross” during the late evening hours. On the daily chart (inferred from 24-hour movement), the 50 and 200-day SMA would likely be bearish if aligned with this trend, suggesting a bearish bias for near-term direction.
MACD & RSI
The MACD line turned negative and diverged with price, while the histogram showed bearish momentum. RSI hit oversold territory (~30) at 03:30 ET, but volume during this rebound was weak, indicating a possible false recovery. The RSI remains near oversold levels, suggesting potential for a near-term bounce—though caution is warranted due to the divergence in volume.
Bollinger Bands
The Bollinger Bands were in a moderate contraction phase at the beginning of the period, followed by a sharp expansion during the price drop. Price closed near the lower band at 6869113, which could offer a short-term floor if volume supports a rebound. The upper band peaked near 7000727 but failed to hold, reinforcing bearish pressure.
Volume & Turnover
Volume spiked moderately at 16:00–16:15 ET with a large bearish move from 6901736 to 6936039, but faded afterward, suggesting fading interest. Turnover was low but aligned with price movement during the key bearish hours. Divergence between volume and price during the rebound near 6860846 suggests weak conviction in the short-term bottom.
Fibonacci Retracements
Fibonacci levels from the 15-minute swing (6829550 to 7000727) showed 61.8% at 6921 and 38.2% at 6864, both of which were tested. The price broke below the 61.8% level, confirming bearish continuation. On the daily chart, if a larger upward trend was in place, 6860846 could represent a key 61.8% retracement support level.
Backtest Hypothesis
The bearish engulfing pattern and divergence in MACD and RSI suggest a short-term bottom near 6860846–6858064 may be forming. A backtest could evaluate a buy-on-close strategy at 6860846 with a stop just below 6858064 and a target at 6888916 (nearest resistance). The strategy relies on low RSI levels and bearish divergence turning into a bullish reversal on volume confirmation.
